Kedarnath Temple

Kedarnath Temple is a pilgrimage site among Hindus located 14 kms from Gaurikund and can be reached by foot or horse (please use your feet and not the poor horses). A 7-minute helicopter services are also available by paying Rs. 7000 for two way, Rs. 4000 going up and Rs. 3000 coming down.We went there one week before it closed for winter when people and traffic are less, hotels (lodging) are cheaper but food variety is less which could end you eating daal-chawal-sabzi. Air is definitely colder and chillier so get all those wind/cold cheaters ready.

About Spring Rain

...a simple country girl who feels most happy and free among meadows and streams, who can live without city lights but not without the light of stars, for whom the trees and the birds and their very flowers and feathers are like her own home and family.

It showcases Spring Rain's experiences in life through the lens of her camera including her hobbies, the places she went to, the people she's with, the thoughts in her mind, the events she observes, the connection she has with nature and wildlife, etc. It is, like the author herself, a pure mixture of everything!

"Every day offers an opportunity".

I only have but one life to live so I don't want to waste it by not doing anything useful. I don't want to sit around and do nothing. And because I love and appreciate the beauty of nature, the hard work and intelligence of mankind and what they can do, and photography, I thereby tend to capture every single thing that reminds me how to live life to the fullest...as much as possible!

In this blog you'll see a mixture of everything.

A Great Poem To Ponder

Tell me not, in mournful numbers,Life is but an empty dream! For the soul is dead that slumbers,And things are not what they seem.

Life is real! Life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal; Dust thou art, to dust returnest,Was not spoken of the soul.

Not enjoyment, and not sorrow,Is our destined end or way; But to act, that each to-morrowFind us farther than to-day.

Art is long, and Time is fleeting,And our hearts, though stout and brave,Still, like muffled drums, are beatingFuneral marches to the grave.

In the world’s broad field of battle,In the bivouac of Life,Be not like dumb, driven cattle! Be a hero in the strife!

Trust no Future, howe’er pleasant! Let the dead Past bury its dead! Act,— act in the living Present! Heart within, and God o’erhead!

Lives of great men all remind usWe can make our lives sublime,And, departing, leave behind usFootprints on the sands of time;
